Throw my ticket in the wind
Throw my mattress out that door
Throw my letters in the sand
'Cause you gotta understand
That tonight I’ll be staying here with you
I coulda left this town by noon
By tonight I'd have been someplace new
But I was feeling a little bit scattered
And your love was all that mattered
So tonight I’ll be staying here with you, get ready
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you
Is it really any wonder
The changes we put on each other's heads
You came down on me like rolling thunder
I left my dreams on the riverbed
I can hear that lonesome whistle blow
I can feel those semis rolling too
If there's a driver out on the road
Tell him he can bear my load
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you, get ready
Girl, tonight I'll be staying here with you
